"The River Spey means something to most Scots, and to many people from elsewhere. For some it is the great salmon river, summoning up images of chaps in tweeds and waders casting prodigious distances. To others the Spey is synonymous with whisky. And others yet think of it as a fearsomely fast and dangerous river." - Donald Barr
This book follows the Spey from its source in the Monadhliath Mountains to the sea at Spey Bay in the Moray Firth, and en route covers its history, natural history, economic geography and music. The Barr brothers have spent a lifetime living near the Spey and so the book offers a true insight to local attractions and culture, distilleries, fishing, wildlife and walks in the Spey Valley. It is a perfect guidebook and travelogue for any visitor to the region.
